What flat & apartment flooring in Blackheath actually involves
Concierge buildings in Blackheath usually need booked delivery windows. We coordinate the drop-off, take the old floor out through the service lift, and finish before the last removal.
Parquet under carpet is common — always lifted carefully before quoting anything else.
Three things that decide a carpet fit in Blackheath
- Stair nosings
Older Blackheath stairs often have shallow treads — we re-cut grippers rather than force a standard kit.
- Doorway transitions
Most georgian terraces doorways here need a bevelled bar rather than a Z-bar to clear the carpet next door.
- Underlay choice
8mm crumb is the usual call for Blackheath bedrooms; 10mm PU on stairs to stop bounce.
- Acoustic underlay to meet leasehold sound-transfer rules
- Concierge-friendly access — we book delivery windows
- LVT with acoustic backing where allowed by the lease
- Whole-flat carpet turnarounds in under a day
Bottom line: Blackheath flats need the right underlay, not just the right carpet — we spec both.
